It’s not about winning over #ImWithHer voters. I’m talking about the voters who thought she was Bernie but could work within the Democratic Party better.

Also, he needed to have old people scared that Biden was going to cut social security and medicare.
I don’t think that was a big segment of her voters, and those who were, I’m pretty sure they’re now voting Bernie

I just don't understand how a black person in the south facing absolute racism and discrimination everyday, battered and bruised by a racist system who doesn't provide them an ounce of help, vote for someone because they go to church. This is mind boggling to me.
It’s mind boggling because it’s not true. This is one of the reasons why people don’t fukk with this movement.

I don't think pointing this out would have necessarily helped him win over Warren voters.

People vote based on all sorts of stupid things besides policy positions.

I've met so many Warren voters who like her because of her technocratic, wonky image, or because she's a woman, etc. I've encountered a lot of Warren supporters who view her as a moderate
Yeah i don't think they're the same class of progressive personally. I've told @mastermind time and time again which Warren stated herself both campaigns purpose was to occupy different lanes which they did. Furthermore i don't think it would have mattered the moderate wing is substantially much later from a voting block perspective which is why liz sat in the middle

It might be too late but Bernie should apocalyptic coronavirus ads with footage from the Chernobyl TV series with frightening narration saying only Bernie's health care plan will prevent you and your families from suffering a tragic death that will bankrupt your relatives.

His only chance is to obliterate him in the debate to make people realize joe has dementia.

the bar for joe is extremely low and the media will give him cover so Bernie has to basically induce a complete mental breakdown

And that still may not be enough :dead:

i read there wont be a debate the next time they're on stage together. The DNC changed it to some town-hall like session so people can ask the candidates questions. I have no confidence whatsoever in biden holding his own against Bernie in an actual debate. we about to witness some unprecedented finessing by the establishment to keep a biden vs bernie debate from ever happening

Bernie's most clear path now, imo, is another poor debate performance from Biden. He's been able to kind of hide in the previous ones where he might not speak for 30 minutes at a time and then gets a minute to speak, but 2 hours where he might speak 10-15 minutes at a time on a single issue I think is going to be impossible for him to hide his mental decline. And if it comes off bad enough, I think a good chunk of voters might change their mind about voting for him.

He needs to stop being a p*ssy. Hit Biden hard. That’s why Trump is President. He painted Clinton as corrupt and contemptible. Go after Biden record. Go after UK and his crackhead son. Go after the fact that he cannot string coherent sentences now


@OfTheCross told me that Bernie supporters did not want Bernie to come out aggressive but I'm seeing otherwise.

That would be the end of Bernie's campaign if he tried to do that.

Black Americans, especially in the south, have a history of seeing politicians pump fake on big promises, from how they were abandoned in the middle of reconstruction, to zero back up of their land and voting rights, to how long it took to get segregation ended and civil rights protections, is it unfathomable that some of them, at the least, simply don’t have faith in politicians promising big change? Maybe familiarity and common culture (the church piece) builds trust more than promises?



nah we just brainwashed by the church sis :troll:

Bruh y’all keep barking up that debate tree and y’all not going to like the results when Biden get Bernie one on one that’s a whole different ball game vs trying to talk about 15 other mofos..
